2024 BMW X6
Starting at $
Highs: Smooth ride with sporty handling, impressive performance, attractive cabin.
Lows: Sleeker roofline costs cargo space, overwhelming settings in infotainment menu, M60i is a significant leap in price.
Verdict: The X6 spoils its passengers with a refined ride, strong engines, and a cozy interior, but its sloped roof compromises its SUV practicality.
Overview
The X6 is here to finish what it started. The original X6 pioneered a new styling direction for SUVS: the dramatically sloped roof, which cuts down on some cargo space for the sake of coolness. Think of it as an X5 SUV that goes to the gym. Its athletic antics transcend its looks, too. The base engine is a peppy 375 horsepower turbocharged inline-six engine that gives the X6 plenty of scoot. The M60i runs hotter, using a 523-horsepower twin-turbo V-8 that’s built for pounding pavement at high speeds. Both powertrains are locked to an eight-speed automatic transmission with all-wheel drive. The 617-hp X6 M delivers a far more aggressive experience but is reviewed separately. But don’t let its focus on driving entertainment skew what’s really at work in the X6. It spoils its passengers with a pleasantly elegant interior complete with an enormous infotainment screen that works a high-tech command center. The X6 has inspired other SUVs, such as the Porsche Cayenne Coupe and Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe, to lower their rooflines. Which only confirms that it was the X6 that started the move to sleeker SUVs.
